Aaron Freeman: Addressing ENGO Real-World Government Relations Challenges: A Three-Part Workshop Series
Event Details
This series will take on selected and specific real-world ENGO Government Relations (GR) challenges raised by the participants who will be asked to define their scenarios through responses to seven questions upon registration.
Participants will outline the challenges they are facing upon registration. These real-world ENGO GR challenges will then be workshopped by Aaron in each session, following background information presented on applicable GR principles and the current political landscape. Each session will outline some principles, perhaps some context on the political landscape, and then get into a fishbowl type of exercise where a selected challenge (1-2) will be addressed. All participants will benefit by seeing how to work through GR challenges. Sessions will be 90 minutes each, including a highly interactive mix of training, a drill-down on specific participant case studies, and discussion.
Registrants will be asked to lay out their specific ENGO GR challenges via responses to seven questions they will see upon registration. We estimate these scenarios will require one page (two pages max) to describe. There’s no need for comprehensive answers, recognizing that sometimes, campaigns may still be figuring things out. We may as well ask some supplementary questions. If you have multiple registrants from your organization you can submit multiple scenarios or concentrate on one for the team. This information needs to be submitted at least one week before (July 1) and ideally 2 weeks prior (June 24).
This series is for those who have at least some experience with GR, and who have had challenges navigating an issue through government. The format will be highly interactive, with opportunities for discussion of specific examples. The main focus will be on the federal government, although there will be the opportunity to raise issues participants are dealing with at provincial or municipal level.
This online workshop series will take place on Zoom Meeting with cameras and audio enabled. All registrants will be provided with a link to the recording and presentation slides following each session.
The recordings will be available for 60 days.
